Ken Maeda was a super popular driver for many years. I'd honestly forgotten he drove that FD, he was more known for driving AE86s.

@sammit Ken Maeda was the driver, in the old option vids they would refer to him as Maeken. He drove the OG Up Garage Hachi, the bright yellow one from back in the mid 2000s D1 days. He eventually drove for Race Factory and Grenade. One of my favorite drivers for sure!

Love these videos even though they're hard to watch. The nostalgia is completely lost on these abandoned relics for the people that owned them and the rest of us are forced to "look but don't/can't touch"...

Take the cat home Sam. The apartment people don't need to know... or it could be the shop cat. Edit: Several years ago my friend & I saved two tiny kittens from a 300z we found at our local junkyard. They were so young they couldn't even go to the bathroom themselves. They went on to live well. I haven't followed up with who received them but they should still be kickin'. I remember the one my friend fostered was named Zee at the time but I don't remember the other one. And fwiw, I had an angel of a cat randomly show up one night while my friend & I were tailgating, looking for meteorites/shooting stars. She just came out of nowhere. After running out of options trying to find the owners I decided to adopt her... come to find out 2 years later she bailed on her family very shortly after they moved into my neighborhood. I met the previous owner of the cat one day when she was jogging. She's mad cool, doesn't mind that the cat is under my care now, only cares that the cat is still alive. She had previously thought it was dead. I think the cat is about 10 years old now according to the vet estimates.

Thank you for the great video nice to see you back at the car yard awesome

Finding such hidden gems in junkyards really catches my eye more than looking at the super cars or hyper cars that most young car enthusiasts would rather see today. I’m young myself and I’m really surprised by how many people don’t know what the “twerkstalion” (AKA Hert’s RX7 FC) is or what the rx7 fc or fd is in general. If there’s anything I would do to that FD rx7 I would take the time to restore it to its original state. I even heard news about the Haruguchi RX7 being restored along with knowing that they got it running. It’s sad to see these cars rot away and to make things worse, how much someone would want for them.

I would love to see you pick up the FD, even if you only store it in a dry place for the time being to later build it back into a drift car (or a street/drift car if registration can be done). Or even a grip car instead of drift 👀Could be a cool save, even if not for now. But damn. It hurts to see all those cool cars just rotting away... Cosmo/FC/FD/RX8/S2000 and all the others :(

8:35 that was actually a sti type r. so a 2 door coupe the little brother of the 22b very rare pretty much like the nismo s14 from tommy in the nissan world. the cut out rear quaters alone should be worth a couple grand!

I tried looking into the driver of that FD3S but his wiki page is used by a different Ken Maeda who was apparently a comedian/actor unfortunately. The only thing I found was that he placed 20th in 2005 D1GP at Fuji Speedway

Maaaaan those Mazdas...FC, FD and also a Cosmo?!!! This is insane! Hope some day i get to lay my hand on one (or possibly more) some day... . You know it hurts a bit seeing all these JDM legends just left rotting away...
